Tears are the sweat of the soul, so Hermione didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said.

Not to mention, she learned this skill of lying through her teeth from Bell.

As the saying goes, "Treat others as they treat you."

Hermione felt no remorse at all for using this trick on Bell... well, maybe a little bit.

After all, she doesn't have Bell's thick skin.

Despite Hermione's vigilance, Bell remained unaware of the thrilling and exhilarating drama unfolding in Hermione's mind that day, until Shanna, refreshed and full of energy, burst into Bell's room.

After all, how could Hermione possibly say something like misunderstanding that her boyfriend is bisexual?

Just thinking about her previous thoughts made her so ashamed she wanted to die. If Bell found out, she would never be able to hold her head up in front of Bell again.

On their way to the restaurant, the Bell siblings bumped into Goodwin, who had also just gotten up.

"Young Master, the things you instructed us to do have been taken care of by our subordinates."

Before Bell could even raise his hand and say hello, Goodwin quickly took two steps forward, stood in front of Bell, and whispered his report to the leader.

Before going to sleep, Bell instructed that a restriction be placed on the Wand of the prisoners to prevent them from casting the Apparition.

Goodwin dared not slack off in the slightest when it came to the tasks assigned by his Young Master.

The moment he woke up, he contacted his team members through his Personal Terminal to confirm the situation.

"But Young Master, can those prisoners really be trusted?"

Although Goodwin was completely convinced of his Young Master's abilities.

But this time, the Young Master actually wanted to use the power of those prisoners, which made him somewhat skeptical.

On the one hand, those prisoners had only surrendered less than a day ago and hadn't even had a chance to properly experience the greatness of the Menethil Family.

Therefore, Goodwin didn't think those guys would obediently listen.

On the other hand, those prisoners were so weak that Goodwin genuinely despised them.

To him, fighting alongside those people was an insult to their Special Operations Team!

"What nonsense are you talking about? Of course, those prisoners can't be trusted."

Bell rolled her eyes at Goodwin.

Just kidding. If these guys are trustworthy, then Voldemort's traitorous Death Eater would all be paragons of loyalty.

Before putting those prisoners under Forced Contract, Bell wouldn't believe a word they said.

Unfortunately, due to the extremely short timeframe and the sheer number of participants, Bell simply cannot produce that many Forced Contract.

It's important to understand that even setting aside the Ministry of Magic's explicit prohibition against creating Forced Contract, the creation of Forced Contract is itself extremely difficult.

It requires the use of very advanced curse magic, which even Bell doesn't have the ability to create yet.

Even Voldemort himself didn't force his subordinates to sign Forced Contract, which shows how complicated the process of creating such a contract was.

Of course, the main reason Voldemort didn't use Forced Contract to control his Death Eater was because most of Death Eater came from Pure-blood noble families. The honor of Pure-blood made them unable to accept a contract that would turn them into slaves.

That's just the way it is...

Furthermore, Voldemort had ample confidence in his own strength, even to the point of arrogance.

He believed that as long as he was alive, no Death Eater would dare to betray him!

As for his death?

Haha, that's a really stupid joke.

The great Dark Lord will never die!

Cough cough.

Getting back to the point, heaven knows how much effort William spent and how many Black Market he searched to find a Dark Wizard capable of creating Forced Contract.

"Young Master, then..."

Stop with the fuss. I have no choice.

Last night alone, nearly 20 members of the Action Team were injured, including 3 seriously.

Tonight's operation will only be more difficult. What if we don't find some cannon fodder?

The members of the Special Operations Team are all loyal followers carefully cultivated by their families. The death of even one of them would be enough to make Bell grieve for a year.

If too many of them were to die by accident, wouldn't the father at home be heartbroken?

"Young Master! Every member of the Special Operations Team Action Team is prepared to serve the family faithfully when they join!"

Goodwin said seriously.

He wouldn't allow anyone to question their loyalty to the family. Not even his most respected Young Master!

"Of course, I have never doubted your loyalty."

Bell glanced at Goodwin and reassured him.

"But that doesn't mean I want you to die."

You are all my precious family, and I don't want to lose any of you.

"Young Master ~!"

Goodwin was deeply moved to hear that his Young Master viewed them in this way.

He looked at the Young Master's upright figure with tears in his eyes. If it weren't for the gender difference, he would have wanted to offer himself to him on the spot.

"Stop!"

Bell took a few steps away from Goodwin, increasing the distance between them.

Goodwin's gaze gave him goosebumps, and he almost threw an Explosion Curse at him.

"Listen up, you only have one task tonight: keep a close eye on those prisoners. Leave the fighting to them."

Furthermore, if those prisoners turn against you at a crucial moment, do not hesitate, retreat immediately!

Bell ordered his men to place Anti-Apparition Curse on the captives' Wand not only to prevent them from running away as soon as they got their hands on the Wand, but also to prevent them from chasing after them at a crucial moment.

As mentioned before, he doesn't trust these people at all.

Therefore, even before the "Slave Soldier Plan" was finalized, he had already prepared a backup plan.

That is, if you see the situation is not good, run away immediately!

He never believed that he could completely quell the American Mafia with his own family's strength.

The Menethil Family wasn't that powerful yet.

So his original plan was to make a big profit and run!

In any case, Voldemort is already a dead man, and the Death Eater who escaped are basically all dead. The British Wizarding World can now be considered very safe.

Since it's not easy to get by in United States, they might as well just stay away from here.

Once they're abroad, these United States gangs are at best nothing more than junior members.

Therefore, even if the plan fails and the prisoners turn against them, it will only mean that the evacuation plan is brought forward a little, and it will not cause much loss to the family.

I'd feel a little bad for my aunt. Because if I did that, the wedding would have to be moved to Britain, and might even have to be postponed for a while.
